Modern business networks are used for increasingly diverse applications – traditional data streams, VoIP voice traffic, video output from digital security cameras and remote control devices to name a few. The range of devices attached to today’s converged network often need to be supported not just in terms of data –equipment such as VoIP IP telephones and Wireless Access Points frequently need to be powered in physical locations where mains power is not available or difficult to deliver. Providing power to such devices via an Ethernet UTP cable is an elegant and easy to implement solution.
The 8-Port Gigabit PoE switch is an unmanaged 10/100/1000Mbps Gigabit Ethernet PoE switch designed to enhance workgroup performance while providing a high level of flexibility. It provides 8 10/100/1000Mbps ports and 8 IEEE802.3af Power over Ethernet (PoE) ports for orkstation, It is an ideal solution for small office and home users to utilize a combination of Gigabit PoE and non-PoE devices.The switch automatically detects IEEE 802.3af compliant devices and provides power and data over a single cable.
The 8-Port Gigabit PoE switch is a Power Source Equipment (PSE) and fully compatible with Powered Devices (PD) that comply with the IEEE 802.3af PoE standard. The 8 - Port Gigabit PoE Switch enables users to attach IEEE802.3af compliant devices such as wireless Access Points (APS), VOIP phone, IP camera, printer and Network Attached Storage (NAS) directly to the 8 -port 10/100/1000M Ethernet PoE Switch without requiring additional power on the network. The unit is designed with home and small business users in mind and is ideal for installations where AC power is not available or no cost-effective.
